Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"It has been a relatively busy cycle in docsland, with changes all
over:
- Bring the kernel memory-model docs into the Sphinx build in the
"literal include" mode.
- Lots of build-infrastructure work, further cleaning up long-term
kernel-doc technical debt. The sphinx-pre-install tool has been
converted to Python and updated for current systems.
- A new tool to detect when documents have been moved and generate
HTML redirects; this can be used on kernel.org (or any other site
hosting the rendered docs) to avoid breaking links.
- Automated processing of the YAML files describing the netlink
protocol.
- A significant update of the maintainer's PGP guide.
... and a seemingly endless series of typo fixes, build-problem fixes,
etc"

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core & protocols:
- Improve drop account scalability on NUMA hosts for RAW and UDP
sockets and the backlog, almost doubling the Pps capacity under DoS
- Optimize the UDP RX performance under stress, reducing contention,
revisiting the binary layout of the involved data structs and
implementing NUMA-aware locking. This improves UDP RX performance
by an additional 50%, even more under extreme conditions
- Add support for PSP encryption of TCP connections; this mechanism
has some similarities with IPsec and TLS, but offers superior HW
offloads capabilities
- Ongoing work to support Accurate ECN for TCP. AccECN allows more
than one congestion notification signal per RTT and is a building
block for Low Latency, Low Loss, and Scalable Throughput (L4S)
- Reorganize the TCP socket binary layout for data locality, reducing
the number of touched cachelines in the fastpath
- Refactor skb deferral free to better scale on large multi-NUMA
hosts, this improves TCP and UDP RX performances significantly on
such HW
- Increase the default socket memory buffer limits from 256K to 4M to
better fit modern link speeds
- Improve handling of setups with a large number of nexthop, making
dump operating scaling linearly and avoiding unneeded
synchronize_rcu() on delete
- Improve bridge handling of VLAN FDB, storing a single entry per
bridge instead of one entry per port; this makes the dump order of
magnitude faster on large switches
- Restore IP ID correctly for encapsulated packets at GSO
segmentation time, allowing GRO to merge packets in more scenarios
- Improve netfilter matching performance on large sets
- Improve MPTCP receive path performance by leveraging recently
introduced core infrastructure (skb deferral free) and adopting
recent TCP autotuning changes
- Allow bridges to redirect to a backup port when the bridge port is
administratively down
- Introduce MPTCP 'laminar' endpoint that con be used only once per
connection and simplify common MPTCP setups
- Add RCU safety to dst->dev, closing a lot of possible races
- A significant crypto library API for SCTP, MPTCP and IPv6 SR,
reducing code duplication
- Supports pulling data from an skb frag into the linear area of an
XDP buffer
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- Generate netlink documentation from YAML using an integrated YAML
parser
Driver API:
- Support using IPv6 Flow Label in Rx hash computation and RSS queue
selection
- Introduce API for fetching the DMA device for a given queue,
allowing TCP zerocopy RX on more H/W setups
- Make XDP helpers compatible with unreadable memory, allowing more
easily building DevMem-enabled drivers with a unified XDP/skbs
datapath
- Add a new dedicated ethtool callback enabling drivers to provide
the number of RX rings directly, improving efficiency and clarity
in RX ring queries and RSS configuration
- Introduce a burst period for the health reporter, allowing better
handling of multiple errors due to the same root cause
- Support for DPLL phase offset exponential moving average,
controlling the average smoothing factor

PowerPC FW introduced HVPIPE RTAS calls such as
ibm,send-hvpipe-msg and ibm,receive-hvpipe-msg for the user space
to exchange information with different sources such as Hardware
Management Consoles (HMC).
HVPIPE_IOC_CREATE_HANDLE is defined to use /dev/papr-hvpipe
interface for ibm,send-hvpipe-msg and ibm,receive-hvpipe-msg
RTAS calls.
Also defined papr_hvpipe_hdr which will added in the payload
that is passed between the kernel and the user space.

Having :doc: references with relative paths doesn't always work,
as it may have troubles when O= is used. Also that's hard to
maintain, and may break if we change the way rst files are
generated from yaml. Better to use instead a reference for
the netlink family.
So, replace them by Sphinx cross-reference tag that are

Pull iommufd updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
"This broadly brings the assigned HW command queue support to iommufd.
This feature is used to improve SVA performance in VMs by avoiding
paravirtualization traps during SVA invalidations.
Along the way I think some of the core logic is in a much better state
to support future driver backed features.
Summary:
- IOMMU HW now has features to directly assign HW command queues to a
guest VM. In this mode the command queue operates on a limited set
of invalidation commands that are suitable for improving guest
invalidation performance and easy for the HW to virtualize.
This brings the generic infrastructure to allow IOMMU drivers to
expose such command queues through the iommufd uAPI, mmap the
doorbell pages, and get the guest physical range for the command
queue ring itself.
- An implementation for the NVIDIA SMMUv3 extension "cmdqv" is built
on the new iommufd command queue features. It works with the
existing SMMU driver support for cmdqv in guest VMs.
- Many precursor cleanups and improvements to support the above
cleanly, changes to the general ioctl and object helpers, driver
support for VDEVICE, and mmap pgoff cookie infrastructure.
- Sequence VDEVICE destruction to always happen before VFIO device
destruction. When using the above type features, and also in future
confidential compute, the internal virtual device representation
becomes linked to HW or CC TSM configuration and objects. If a VFIO
device is removed from iommufd those HW objects should also be
cleaned up to prevent a sort of UAF. This became important now that
we have HW backing the VDEVICE.
- Fix one syzkaller found error related to math overflows during iova
allocation"

"It has been a relatively busy cycle for docs, especially the build

- The Perl kernel-doc script was added to 2.3.52pre1 just after the
turn of the millennium. Over the following 25 years, it accumulated
a vast amount of cruft, all in a language few people want to deal
with anymore. Mauro's Python replacement in 6.16 faithfully
reproduced all of the cruft in the hope of avoiding regressions.
Now that we have a more reasonable code base, though, we can work
on cleaning it up; many of the changes this time around are toward
that end.

The UVC driver provides two metadata types V4L2_META_FMT_UVC, and
V4L2_META_FMT_D4XX. The only difference between the two of them is that
V4L2_META_FMT_UVC only copies PTS, SCR, size and flags, and
V4L2_META_FMT_D4XX copies the whole metadata section.
Now we only enable V4L2_META_FMT_D4XX for the Intel D4xx family of
devices, but it is useful to have the whole metadata payload for any
device where vendors include other metadata, such as the one described by
Microsoft:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/stream/mf-capture-metadata
This patch introduces a new format V4L2_META_FMT_UVC_MSXU_1_5, that is
identical to V4L2_META_FMT_D4XX.
Let the user enable this format with a quirk for now. This way they can
test if their devices provide useful metadata without rebuilding the
kernel. They can later contribute patches to auto-quirk their devices.
We will also work in methods to auto-detect devices compatible with this
new metadata format.

The CMA heap's name in devtmpfs can vary depending on how the heap is
defined. Its name defaults to "reserved", but if a CMA area is defined
in the devicetree, the heap takes on the devicetree node's name, such as
"default-pool" or "linux,cma". To simplify naming, unconditionally name
it "default_cma_region", but keep a legacy node in place backed by the
same underlying allocator for backwards compatibility.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core:
- Implement the Device Memory TCP transmit path, allowing zero-copy
data transmission on top of TCP from e.g. GPU memory to the wire.
- Move all the IPv6 routing tables management outside the RTNL scope,
under its own lock and RCU. The route control path is now 3x times
faster.
- Convert queue related netlink ops to instance lock, reducing again
the scope of the RTNL lock. This improves the control plane
scalability.
- Refactor the software crc32c implementation, removing unneeded
abstraction layers and improving significantly the related
micro-benchmarks.
- Optimize the GRO engine for UDP-tunneled traffic, for a 10%
performance improvement in related stream tests.
- Cover more per-CPU storage with local nested BH locking; this is a
prep work to remove the current per-CPU lock in local_bh_disable()
on PREMPT_RT.
- Introduce and use nlmsg_payload helper, combining buffer bounds
verification with accessing payload carried by netlink messages.
Netfilter:
- Rewrite the procfs conntrack table implementation, improving
considerably the dump performance. A lot of user-space tools still
use this interface.
- Implement support for wildcard netdevice in netdev basechain and
flowtables.
- Integrate conntrack information into nft trace infrastructure.
- Export set count and backend name to userspace, for better
introspection.
BPF:
- BPF qdisc support: BPF-qdisc can be implemented with BPF struct_ops
programs and can be controlled in similar way to traditional qdiscs
using the "tc qdisc" command.
- Refactor the UDP socket iterator, addressing long standing issues
WRT duplicate hits or missed sockets.
Protocols:
- Improve TCP receive buffer auto-tuning and increase the default
upper bound for the receive buffer; overall this improves the
single flow maximum thoughput on 200Gbs link by over 60%.
- Add AFS GSSAPI security class to AF_RXRPC; it provides transport
security for connections to the AFS fileserver and VL server.
- Improve TCP multipath routing, so that the sources address always
matches the nexthop device.
- Introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS for AF_UNIX, to allow disabling SCM_RIGHTS,
and thus preventing DoS caused by passing around problematic FDs.
- Retire DCCP socket. DCCP only receives updates for bugs, and major
distros disable it by default. Its removal allows for better
organisation of TCP fields to reduce the number of cache lines hit
in the fast path.
- Extend TCP drop-reason support to cover PAWS checks.
Driver API:
- Reorganize PTP ioctl flag support to require an explicit opt-in for
the drivers, avoiding the problem of drivers not rejecting new
unsupported flags.
- Converted several device drivers to timestamping APIs.
- Introduce per-PHY ethtool dump helpers, improving the support for
dump operations targeting PHYs.
Tests and tooling:
- Add support for classic netlink in user space C codegen, so that
ynl-c can now read, create and modify links, routes addresses and
qdisc layer configuration.
- Add ynl sub-types for binary attributes, allowing ynl-c to output
known struct instead of raw binary data, clarifying the classic
netlink output.
- Extend MPTCP selftests to improve the code-coverage.
- Add tests for XDP tail adjustment in AF_XDP.
New hardware / drivers:
- OpenVPN virtual driver: offload OpenVPN data channels processing to
the kernel-space, increasing the data transfer throughput WRT the
user-space implementation.

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"A moderately busy cycle for documentation this time around:
- The most significant change is the replacement of the old
kernel-doc script (a monstrous collection of Perl regexes that
predates the Git era) with a Python reimplementation. That, too, is
a horrifying collection of regexes, but in a much cleaner and more
maintainable structure that integrates far better with the Sphinx
build system.
This change has been in linux-next for the full 6.15 cycle; the
small number of problems that turned up have been addressed,
seemingly to everybody's satisfaction. The Perl kernel-doc script
remains in tree (as scripts/kernel-doc.pl) and can be used with a
command-line option if need be. Unless some reason to keep it
around materializes, it will probably go away in 6.17.
Credit goes to Mauro Carvalho Chehab for doing all this work.

The present sbrmi module only support reporting power via hwmon.
However, AMD data center range of processors support various
system management functionality using custom protocols defined in
Advanced Platform Management Link (APML) specification.
Register a miscdevice, which creates a device /dev/sbrmiX with an IOCTL
interface for the user space to invoke the APML Mailbox protocol, which
is already defined in sbrmi_mailbox_xfer().
The APML protocols depend on a set of RMI registers. Having an IOCTL
as a single entry point will help in providing synchronization among
these protocols as multiple transactions on RMI register set may
create race condition.
Support for other protocols will be added in subsequent patches.
APML mailbox protocol returns additional error codes written by
SMU firmware in the out-bound register 0x37. These errors include,
invalid core, message not supported over platform and
others. This additional error codes can be used to provide more
details to user space.
Open-sourced and widely used https://github.com/amd/esmi_oob_library
will continue to provide user-space programmable API.
